Your infrequent reminder that I spent twenty minutes dead a few years ago, and without constant CPR and a correctly-used defibrillator when paramedics arrived I would still be dead.
LEARN CPR. LEARN TO USE A DEFIBRILLATOR.
The dumbest take I've ever heard is "but what if I harm them further while doing CPR?"
A person who needs CPR is functionally dead. If they come back to life, a couple of broken ribs is a small price to pay.

@digitalraven Back in 1974, when I took the CPR class, the instructor told us if we didn't break a rib or two, we probably were not using enough force.
